The Future of Layout Marking.
The Peddinghaus PeddiWriter Automatic Layout Marking Machine is the first of its kind, and has already achieved unprecedented success in the steel industry. With annual labor savings up to $300,000, the PeddiWriter marks as many as 150 profiles in a single shift and equals the work to that of 6 layout technicians.
Designed with the rugged environment of typical fab shops in mind, the PeddiWriter relies on proven Hypertherm plasma technology to automate the processes of layout and fit up. The PeddiWriter makes non-intrusive layout marks that clearly designate cutting and welding operations
Why Peddinghaus PeddiWriter Automatic Layout Marking Machine?
- First ever fully automatic and standalone layout marking system
- Mark on all 4 sides of a profile as a standalone operation, drill with your drill line, write with the PeddiWriter
- Layout faster and more effective with a dual torch system
- Minimize the potential for human error by eliminating manual measurement
- Minimize overhead and human error associated with manually laying out and marking weld data onto a profile
- Streamline material handling by minimizing crane lifting of a section to and from a layout station
- Easily integrate into your existing Peddinghaus system due to its modular design
Hypertherm Plasma ArcWriting
Hypertherm ArcWriting on the PeddiWriter allows for superior marking times, and maximum return on investment. Plasma marking maintains its visibility on all finished surfaces whether they are shot blasted or contain amounts of rust or scale.
Two Independent Torch Assemblies
Two completely independent torch assemblies allow the PeddiWriter to operate at rapid speeds, far surpassing carbide scribing. Each torch operates on a completely independent axis. This allows the machine to mark totally unique characters, on two separate surfaces simultaneously.
Continuous Surface Detection
Unlike traditional processing systems that rely on the need to constantly probe material, the PeddiWriter utilizes a mechanical roller probe system. This allows the machine to maintain distance while marking during a program, eliminating timely probing sequences.

Dovetails, what’s the big deal?
Machinery SolutionsOnce you open the drawer and see the dovetail design, it elevates your product in the consumer’s eye. But why dovetail machine is right for my operation? When deciding to produce your own drawer boxes, a number of factors come into play when selecting the equipment required.
CNC Series: How does cutting speed affect your cutter life?
Machinery SolutionsIf you want to extend your cutter life, you need to produce an optimum chip load. And to achieve faster feed rates, you need to have axis servo drives large enough to move the machine’s mass at a rapid speed.
